Extra sturdy & compostable bags

Switching to compostable die-cut handle bags means you get a bag that’s not only tough but also kind to the planet. These bags handle up to 5 lbs., resist rips and tears and keep your products safe from moisture – perfect for everything from retail goods to coffee shop treats. Made to be sturdy, these bags are a major step up from alternative plastic options, giving businesses an eco-conscious edge without compromising on durability.

Compostable & reusable for minimal impact

Crafted from 2 mil thick compostable material, these bags can be reused multiple times, giving your brand more exposure with every use. Even better, they break down completely in both landfills and home compost, so you can feel good about their end-of-life impact. With official compostable certifications (including TÜV Austria’s OK compost HOME certification),nthese bags show customers you’re serious about sustainability and they offer a smart, earth-friendly alternative to regular die-cut handle bags.

Want bags that really showcase your brand? Custom compostable die-cut handle bags let you print in full colour, covering almost the whole surface, so your logo, name or message stands out. Whether you want to say "thanks" or make a big brand statement, we’ve got you covered with options for 1- or 2-sided printing.
